“…The association of semiochemicals in existing baited stations could improve the common monitoring methods, allowing producers to better schedule their pesticide applications . Complementarily, the identification of R. completa sex and/or oviposition marking pheromones could complete the panel of semiochemicals of interest for R. completa management.…”

“…Recently, semiochemical-based tactics have become an important category of integrated pest management (IPM). Pheromones and other semiochemicals are widely applied not only for controlling insect pests (Weinzierl et al 2005;Cook et al 2007;Stelinski 2007;Heuskin et al 2009), but also for conservation of rare and threatened insects (Larsson 2016). Semiochemicals' efficacy mainly depends on their physical properties i.e.…”

Semiochemicals are defined as informative molecules mainly used in plant-insect or insectinsect interactions as alternative or complementary components to insecticide approaches in different integrated pest management strategies. They are used to manipulate insect behaviour by affecting the survival and/or reproduction of insect pests for controlling their infestations on crops. The present review provides a basic summary of the utilization of semiochemicals for controlling insect pests. Two main topics were explored in this study. The first topic focuses on a description of semiochemicals and their types (pheromones and allelochemicals). Pheromones represent an intraspecific communication amidst members of the same species. Allelochemicals, produced by individuals of one species, modify the behavior of individuals of a different species (i.e. an interspecific effect). Allelochemicals include different informative molecules such as: allomones, kairomones, synomones, antimones and apneumones. The second topic focuses on the application of semiochemicals in IPM programs. Different semiochemicals are included in integrated pest management programs in various ways such as monitoring, mass trapping, attract-and-kill, push-pull, and disruption strategies. Pheromones are promising and can be used singly or in integration with other control strategies for monitoring and controlling insect pests in agricultural systems. For example, sex pheromones have been applied in mass trapping, disruption and attract-and-kill tactics in IPM programs.

“…Rapidly, the economic interest for using pheromone compounds in pest controls was updated and included in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs [70], which imply various strategies depending the goals and scopes to achieve. Monitoring of insect populations, trapping by using traps lured with synthetic attractant associated with a killing substance [113], Push-pull strategy, which consists of pushing away crop enemies while luring them to the pheromone dispensers containing killing substances, is among of the current IPM strategies [114][115][116][117][118]. We have to precise that the aggregation pheromones are one of the most ecologically selective pest suppression methods.…”

Olfaction is a molecular sense, in which information carried in airborne chemicals is transformed into patterns of brain activity that underlie odor perception. It is probably the most important sense for survival of most animal species ranging from insects to mammals. Detection and localization of food, avoidance of toxins and predators, and communication with cohorts and mating partners through volatile pheromones are examples of the range of olfaction dependent behavior. Olfaction in insect, both medical and agricultural fields, is well documented today. That wide knowledge of insect olfaction (behaviour), especially in agriculture, has contributed to the development of the Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies, especially the use of semiochemicals for luring, trapping and killing of insect pests. The present literature review addresses the following general subjects: notion of the pest, importance of the sensilla in insect life, general mechanism of chemical signals transduction, odor identification and discrimination in insects, chemical messengers (pheromones and allelochemicals), insect-plant interactions, ratio-specific odor recognition, and evolution in pest-control strategies and the use of plant extracts in protecting stored-products. The purpose is to contribute in helping beginners in the modern agricultural entomology field for rapid familiarization with these terms frequently used in IPM strategies.
